I enjoy watching celebrities and award shows!

Patricia Quiroz-Alfaro

I vote for my favorite actors and awards also give me an idea of what I want to watch. Other than that winners don't matter to me.

Jeanette Johnson

I agree with you except I have to say when Jamie Lee Curtis won best supporting actress OMG I went completely crazy that right there is what makes me watch awards shows AND now these damn huge studios what don't they get without a script an idea there's no films tv to be made forget reality

Haven't watched any of them in decades. Who wants to see some very rich celebrities pat each other on the back and tell us all their political views?

Ed Drahos

Award shows are nothing more than self promotion of themselves. And act like self advertising. Like advertising, the less advertising the less popularity.

Garrett

The award shows once mattered. Since they have become so much more than a few once or twice a year but rather at least a 100, all with varying degrees of actual criteria beyond marketing campaigns and now the over-compensating “inclusive,” nature of certain categories going out of their way

Two Men & A Lady

Not in the least.

Anna Chaya Hoffman

Makes zero impact on my life

Jethro Born

The only awards shows that I ever watch are the CMAs in Nashville. The rest, which originate in California, aren't worth the powder to blow them up.

BarbJ

Not interested in celeb political views.

seaweed349

There are better things to do with my time.

Cheryl Gafner

Too polarizing now. 🙄

Tina Bouthillier

I used to at least over a decade or 2 ago but it is so political now, that I really don't care any more

Joyce Koch

To many commercials

Valerie Lantz

Not interested.

Waira

The Office has to be in my top 5 favorite shows of all time.

Claire Lewis

You can watch the episodes out of order on the office

Jordan Wang

even though it has its ups and downs, it’s peak is for sure better than parks and rec. also it has a way more satisfying Finale and Michael Scott is the best

Parks and rec is definitely a good show but The Office just has much more rewatch value, they’re made in slightly different ways and are different to experience

creeper_killer5

It’s so much funnier

Swavy Wavy

It’s easy to get addicted to

sof.iiiaaa28 My dudes

this jawn is funny amazing and once you watch all of the seasons you can restart and realized things you never did before and episodes up forgot about

Austin Mitchell

The office is Funnier and the main character in parks is annoying I couldn’t stand another episode

Nicole Garcia

I love the office

Braden Kobeski

Hands down my favorite show!

Gigi McAtee

This was a hard choice but The Office characters stick with me!

Sai Gohel

Currently watching it all over again

Aidan Nicholson

Melissa Marie Wells

It’s funnier and the characters are better as well.

Drew Smith

Dwight & Jim. Nuff’ said.

Mike Aronow

Michael Scott is one of TV's funniest characters ever.

Lil' Sebastian. Treat yo' self!

Matt Mann

It's a tighter ship to sail the whole series... The office gets a little clunky near the end

Gamer Kid

Not better but definitely more binge worthy cuz there are more jokes that keep u entertained for a longer time.

yeah because you could die from corona

k san

Absolutely! Coming from states where you do pump your own, it is definitely faster. At places like Fred Meyer that serve many people, attendants don’t always get to the people who got there 1st. Arg!

Mike Aronow

Yes, but, I wish they all had those clips that allowed you to start fueling and then hang out in your car until the tank was full. Some still do, but, I feel like they're increasingly rare.

sharder8

Nothing like waiting for the employee to finally get to refueling your car and then waiting again for the employee to hang up the hose. Having said that, I do use full service when in medically need.

Gina Ricketts

Because I can get in and out quick and don't have to wait in line for gas station employees who are the slowest individuals in the free universe lol!

Doug Paris

Because I'm not lazy and I am not incompetent-it is faster and in tune with the vast majority of the other 49 states-can't believe Oregon is still living in the dark ages-MG what is wrong with you pep

Keith Uht

48. New Jersey is like Oregon.

Ka San

Yes, absolutely!!! I've only lived in Bend for 3 years, and I find it slow and inconvenient. Even in bad weather, I'd rather not wait for an attendant.

Len Parsons

And the price for self service needs to be less than full service

Diane Springstead Cole

Growing up in Ohio I've pumped gas for years. I never minded it.

Susan Keith

It is better for the environment as the nozzle does not remain in the tank with fumes escaping until the attendant is able to return to your vehicle.

GT Thomas

You do not have to but it should be your choice.

Steven Huillet

Gas prices would be cheaper for one thing and service would be much faster!

Adam Hollman

Let station owners decide how to serve their customers and then consumers can choose where to buy. I prefer to just take care of it myself rather than wait until the attendant gets around to me.

55%

No, don't want to.

I'd rather not deal with the pump. Plus I don't want to take a job away from someone who could have been an attendant.

I don't want to take jobs away from anyone. That is why I won't use the self serve in Walmart either.

Patricia Morris

Came from a state where you had to pump my own gas and it is not easy to do in your 80’s

Nik Myles

This is a job killer bill

champagne dog

Why would I want to pump gas. I love full service gas stations and often tip the attendants. Self service gas pumps equals loss of jobs and inconvenience for customers. Please Oregon, stay unique.

Karen Schwecke Bates

i just had back surgery - definitely not pumping my own gas. Plus, we travel in between Washington and California - I love the fact that we can come back to Oregon and not have to get out of the car

Lida Vitt

Because it's quite clear that they have not been able to control the violence! They/Dems have allowed this by being a sanctuary city. That harbor criminals that harm their own US citizens, and police.

Christena

It creates jobs, it's convenient. I don't really care either way but it's nice.

Danni

I'm old, disabled, and way too stupid to figure out how it works. Do you think women all dressed up for a date want to arrive smelling of gasoline?

Leslie Ann

I've poor health and greatly appreciate those who work hard and pump my gas. They need jobs too.

Rod Blower

We have voted on this many times, and it has always been bnb 9ted down

Toni Ayers

Why is everyone in such a hurry? Waste too much time on social media perhaps?

Linda Starr Williams

NO NO AND HELL NO!!!!

Kathryn Kinney Evans

Just not a good idea all around.

Linda Nolin

I have never had so much trouble getting gas as when I went on a trip to Az. last year. Can't use cash and couldn't get the gas to start because every pump is different. Had to get help several times.

Robert Northrup

The excuse that pumping gas is dangerous is ridiculous. Millions of people pump gas everyday without injury to themselves, others or their vehicle. It is worth it to me to pay for the service.

Gary Hatherill

I don't mind, either way. But didn't I hear the law says the price has to stay the same?

Erica Crossan

Because I don't want to smell like gas or get out in the weather. I also don't want to go inside if I pay with cash

Judy Fisher

Self-pumping gas in Oregon would eliminate those jobs for people who currently do this service.

Nancy Cook

I think safety and security are both issues. A hired attendant is a safer option, especially for women in a car alone.

Leota Evans

Because I like having my gas pumped.. I've never pumped my gas in Oregon... native Oregonian.. More jobs for Oregon... We don't need people being in a hurry pumping there own gas...slow down

Loni Jewell

The amount of jobs that would be lost seems would be a blow to a part of the community that already struggles to afford the cost of living in our area. Job elimination for convenience, no way!
